10.1 Cooking recommendations
The temperature and cooking times in the tables are guidelines only. They depend on the
recipes and the quality and quantity of the ingredients used.
Your oven may bake or roast differently to the oven you had before. The tables below
show recommended settings for temperature, cooking time and shelf position for specific
types of the food.
If you cannot find the settings for a special recipe, look for the similar one.
10.2 Inner side of the door
On the inner side of the door you can
find:
• the numbers of the shelf positions.
• information about the oven functions,
recommended shelf positions and
temperatures for dishes.
10.3 Baking
For the first baking, use the lower
temperature.
10.4 Tips on baking
Baking results
The bottom of the cake
is not baked sufficiently.
The cake sinks and be-
comes soggy or streaky.
The cake is too dry.
The cake bakes uneven-
ly.
The cake is not ready in
the baking time speci-
fied in a recipe.
You can extend the baking time by 10 –
15 minutes if you bake cakes on more
than one shelf position.
Cakes and pastries at different heights
do not always brown equally. There is no
need to change the temperature setting
if an unequal browning occurs. The
differences equalize during baking.
Trays in the oven can distort during
baking. When the trays are cold again,
the distortions disappear.
Possible cause
The shelf position is incor-
rect.
The oven temperature is
too high.
The oven temperature is
too high and the baking
time is too short.

too low.
The baking time is too long. Next time set shorter baking time.
The oven temperature is
too high and the baking

The cake batter is not even-
ly distributed.

perature.
